There is a wave of misconceptions circulating around about the drawbacks of crossbred cattle. The glorifications of Indian native cattle breeds, without any proper scientific foundations or data, added fuel to this facade.

India’s annual milk production per cow is only 1,310 kg, whereas the world average is 2,200 kg. It is desperately incompetent when compared with the 9,314 kg of the US and 10,035 kg of Israel, India’s major competitors.
